Parents raise concerns about repeated safety incidents at Glenbard East High School
GLEN ELLYN, Ill. -- A west suburban high school community spoke up Monday night about safety concerns. Parents at Glenbard East High School in Lombard said several recent incidentsâincluding a gun found on campusâhave them on edge. They gathered Monday night at a Glenbard Township High School District 87 board meeting at the other school in the district, Glenbard West High School in Glen Ellyn.
'This gun was brought in easily past any so-called emergency measures that are currently in place,' another said. Parent Katie LaCount does not think her kids are safe in school. 'Noâespecially when three incidents have happened in a matter of two weeks,' she said. 'This could have turned out a lot worse than it did.' The board briefly responded to parents' concerns.
